- Description of Project
- This proposed project builds on the progress generated by the Guizhou Coal Mine Methane (CMM) Recovery and Utilization Initiative. In addition to continuing information outreach services about CMM recovery and utilization developments in Guizhou, the project will lead a publishable prefeasibility study for two candidate coal mines (1 million tons/year and 300,000 tons/year) of utilization alternatives to power generation. The study will explore the potential for CMM utilized as town gas for a sizable city and CMM-to-LNG/CNG (liquid natural gas/compressed natural gas) to replace fuels for buses and taxis in Guizhou Province.
